Listeria Selective Enrichment Medium (500g) – Product Description

Product Description

Listeria Selective Enrichment Medium is a highly selective broth medium for the enrichment of Listeria species, including Listeria monocytogenes, from food, clinical, and environmental sources. It is a perfect medium for the revival and isolation of Listeria because it selects in an ideal way and inhibits the development of other flora.

This media, in particular, is of value in food safety testing, clinical microbiology, and environmental monitoring. Listeria Selective Enrichment Medium is formulated to increase the sensitivity of agar plating for Listeria, using selective agar (e.g., Listeria Agar). It is an essential means of screening for potential contamination in high-risk environments, such as food processing operations and clinical facilities.

Key Features

• Completely Selective: Formulated to favour the growth of Listeria species and reduce competing microorganisms.
  • The Ideal solution for Food and Environmental Samples: Ideal for enrichment of Listeria from complex food matrices and environmental samples.
  • Improved Sensitivity: Designed to enhance the recovery of Listeria species, particularly when subsequent plating to selective agar is performed.
  • Consistent Results: Offers dependable enrichment to facilitate precise microbiological testing.
